Seline was the one who sent Hendrix the screenshot. She didn't add any commentary—just a simple screenshot. But the message she was conveying couldn't be any clearer. She wanted to tell him that he was out of the game.Hendrix stared at the screenshot expressionlessly for a moment before deleting it and promptly blocking Seline. Then, he turned his attention back to the computer screen. The data was still there, but he couldn't focus on a single number.Even though he had deleted the screenshot from his phone, he still felt as if it had been burned into his mind. He pressed his lips into a thin line as he slowly balled his hands into fists.After a while, he finally couldn't take it anymore. He shot up from his seat and grabbed his car keys before walking out. He drove fast, though he didn't really know where he was going.Eventually, he stopped in front of a new construction site. He had bought this plot of land a year ago. Construction had only started a few months ago because it

After Leah finished speaking, Noelle fell silent."So, you do know that you're the one who's dragging him down, don't you?" Leah looked at her, the sarcasm in her smile deepening."What do you want me to do?" Noelle asked."Isn't it obvious? I want you to leave him, of course!"Noelle pursed her lips. "But Mrs. Pritchett, Dylan is an adult. He knows what he's doing. Besides, we've made a promise to each other. How could I abandon him now when he has stuck with me through it all?""Abandon?" Leah let out a sharp laugh. "Don't act like you don't know what's going on. His company was doing just fine before, so why is it suddenly being targeted? It's all because of you! Think about it—has anything good ever happened to him since he met you?"Every single time something bad happened to him, you were the reason behind it! Even back then! Do you really not know that his grandfather was accused of money laundering because of Hendrix? If not for that, Dylan wouldn't have gotten engaged to

Dylan had told Noelle he would call her at 11:00 pm. But it wasn't until midnight that she finally received his call."Is Rosie asleep?" he asked.Noelle walked over to the balcony attached to the living room with her phone before answering, "Yup.""Sorry. I was going to call you around ten something, but something came up, and I've been busy until now.""It's okay. I was still awake anyway," Noelle replied quickly."Okay."Then, silence suddenly fell between them.The quiet stretched on just a little too long—long enough for both of them to sense that something felt off.Dylan was the first to break it. "Did something happen?""No," Noelle answered hastily, then asked, "Are you still really busy lately?""Yeah, more or less. It's mainly dealing with some shareholders pulling out. You know how it is—the company hasn't officially gone bankrupt yet, but if they all pull out at once, it'll have a more direct impact. So I—"Dylan's voice trailed off. Then, he chuckled and said,

"What brings you here, Ms. Fisher?" Hendrix asked, cutting through the small talk.Jean knew she wasn't in a position to exchange pleasantries with him. Thus, she didn't beat around the bush. "Mr. Freeman, as you know, all of my family's assets have been confiscated, and my parents are no longer in this world."So, it makes no difference whether I'm in or out of prison. I have no one in this city and no place to turn to. I can't even support myself. But I heard you've been dealing with something troublesome lately—so I came to ask. If I can help you solve it, would you be willing to pay me?"Hendrix slowly narrowed his eyes and chuckled softly. "Continue.""I know why you've been putting so much pressure on Dylan. It's all because of Noelle, isn't it? But what you probably don't realize is that Dylan doesn't care as much about power and status as you think."Yet, ironically, that's the only leverage you have over him right now. But honestly, breaking him and Noelle apart doesn't h

Dylan had originally promised Noelle that he would wrap up the situation with Dyno Corporation within a month. He had even booked tickets to a seaside amusement park in advance, saying he wanted to bring Rosie there.Rosie had been looking forward to it for a long time and even asked Noelle to take her to the mall to buy a new swimsuit. But two days before the planned trip, Dylan suddenly called Noelle to say he wouldn't be able to keep his promise."There's an investor from abroad I need to meet. If the deal goes through, there might still be a chance to turn things around, so…"Dylan's voice carried a hint of guilt.But Noelle quickly smiled and said, "It's fine. You go ahead and do what you have to do. I can take Rosie by myself.""I can arrange for someone to go with you. It'll be too tiring for you to handle it alone.""It's okay. I've managed on my own before, haven't I?" Noelle said, her tone light. "So, is there a chance to save the company?"Dylan could hear the joy in
